SUBJECT:
Post-Three Mile Island-2 Task Force On May 21, 1979, the Nuclear Regulatory Comission (NRC) concurred in the proposed plan of the Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (flR) to fomalize an interim organizational structure to deal with the impacts of the Three Mile Island accident. As a part of this organizational structure, a special " Lesson Learned" task force was established to review and evaluate the information obtained as a result of the Three Mile Island-2 (TMI-2) accident. Specifically, the Lesson Learned task force will review and evaluate investigative infomation, staff evaluations of responses to I&E bulletins and orders, and staff recomendations and recomended actions from outside of the NRC.
In addition, the task force will identify, analyze and recomend changes to licensing requirements and the licensing process for nuclear power plants based on the lessons learned and provide recom-mendations for interim requirements for new operating licenses prior to completion of long-tem activities. The subject areas of imediate interest to the task force include:
(1)
Reactor operator training and licensing; (2)
Reactor transier.t and accident analysis; a
(3)
Licensing requirements for safety and process equipment.h h instrumenta tion, and controls; gy (4)
Offsite and onsite emergency preparations and proceduresQ h CC hg (5)
Reactor siting; (6)
Licensee technical qualification; h
(7)
NRR accident response role, capability and management; (8)

.. (11)
Post-accident cleanup and recovery; and (12) NRR engineering evaluation of the TMI-2 event sequence.
The end product of the task force's review may take the form of proposals for changes in legislation, policy, regulations, staff technical positions, review procedures, or organizational structure and responsibilities.
However, whatever result is ultimately reached, the NRC Staff will, at the conclusion of this inquiry, promptly notify the Comission, the Licensing and Appeal Boards, and the parties of all new information developed which may be relevant and material to any of the issues being adjudicated in presently pending cases.
